Sense of balance for KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design) 3 Harmony and comparison
1 -- Balance · Contrast · Unity
(1) Balance The sense of balance is very important in the basic ability of the art and design. This is the fundamental and basic ability for KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design). All of the issues discussed previously will reach to the problem of balancing in the two-dimensional space. These are various "arrangements" discussed in centrifugal KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design), and various "divisions" and "proportion" discussed in centripetal KOHSEI (Basic Art & Design). How can we arrange a shape in a limited space to
compose most effectively? This is the problem which we always meet frequently
in the art and design. It is extremely important for artists and designers
to have a superior sense of balance.
